Pros

Lamps Plus is a great company to work for and one of the best employers. It's somewhat of a hidden gem because, for headquarters, it's a private company in a city that's all about entertainment and tech companies you're familiar with. Lamps Plus cares about employees because it knows recruiting, training, and retaining great employees leads to happy customers and long-term success. Some employees have been with the company for decades but there's always opportunities to fill new roles as the company grows. Everyone is friendly. The company rewards and supports motivated, smart and loyal employees. You’re surrounded by people who are really good at what they do, have similar work ethic and want to collaborate to see the company do well. Working with co-workers means interesting projects, learning and results you are proud of. You learn because the focus on improving in your function so there's that investment in your success. The company has been around for decades so you feel a part of something much bigger than a job. There’s stability and you can be proud to work here. It’s more stable than other companies of the same size in various industries. Management is great. Communication is frequent so everyone works toward shared goals and adjusts together. You aspire to work hard and succeed like top management. At corporate, work-life balance is really good. You work hard to achieve goals during the day but then you get to enjoy life after work. You’re proud to visit stores. The company has a great reputation in its industry. You are encouraged to wear business attire to take pride in yourself like you do your work. Perks include work/life balance, generous product discounts, holiday events and secure parking.

Cons

There are no major negatives to working for Lamps Plus at corporate. There are a lot more positives than other companies its size. Sure, you could come up with things you don't like but those are often internal and manifest unnecessary negative thoughts. Some people don't like the free coffee but it's fine and there are other options in the neighborhood if you choose. There are a lot of good eating options nearby too. The company seems to have a way of retaining and helping improve high performing employees and removing unnecessary distractions.

Hi - We do place a big emphasis on work-life balance, so it is good to hear feedback that we are getting that right. We also stress a team environment where everyone is invited to participate and contribute ideas, and where we give everyone new challenges and responsibilities as their career progresses. That's the goal that as a company we are aiming for. Thank you for your comments!

Hello - thank you for taking the time to leave us some feedback! As you noted, we are a family-owned and operated business and we really try and get the whole work-life balance right. Your note about vacation time is something we will look at. Time does increase with the amount of years an employee has been with the company, and we are always looking for ways to improve the policy and use it to create the right work balance for our employees. Thanks once again for leaving us some feedback!
